I'm at VIR. I was having a fantastic time until I blew the transmission. I figured I'd watch the Caps get their asses kicked again. I can't get the game channel in my room. So, I'm searching the guide for something to watch, and I see this...

WTFuck?

^^ Isn't that just a journalistic series that looks at all kinds of topics and names each show with the format: "This Week in X" (where x is the topic de semaine) ?
Your reaction is basically validation of their strategy to grab eyeballs.

"This Week in White Supremacy" is the name of a weekly series produced by 1 Hood Media, designed to reinforce the perception amongst liberal youth that Nazis and KKK members are lurking in the shadows everywhere in modern America.

The show began as a podcast in 2020 on various platforms (YT, FB, AppleTV, etc), and was signed as a "real" TV series last year on FreeSpeech TV, a 501(c)3 non-profit cable / satellite network which "amplifies underrepresented voices and those working on the front lines of social, economic and environmental justice."

Well, I stand corrected . . . or perhaps I just sit down and shake my head.

Just take a deep breath, relax, and watch our nation destroy itself from within.

Shouldn't the kitty be a different color? His name was Nero, after all.

I'm terribly sorry that, while I got the AI algorithm to produce a pretty goddamn realistic painting of a CAT PLAYING A FIDDLE as Rome burns, including the light from the flames properly backlighting the shadowed side of the the goddamn cat's FUR, it got the color of the cat slightly wrong.


I feel slightly cheated that nothing super politically contentious happened during the years I was in college, causing protests and sit-ins and such.

Largely because I would have honestly enjoyed just totally ignoring all of it and feeling a bit smug about that.

Or maybe even putting up small posters saying things like "Defund Hamas" late at night.

I really liked the cat picture. Sorry for being so pedantic.

My AI summoning skills are lacking.

Heh, I know. The mock outrage was for dramatic effect.

That first one you posted has a sort of demon-cat vibe going on. It's interesting.

Top Study--CO2 CAN"T Cause Global Warming....uh oh...A bombshell new peer-reviewed study has provided conclusive scientific evidence proving that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in Earth’s atmosphere cannot cause “global warming.”

Dr. Jan Kubicki led a group of world-renowned Polish scientists to study the impact of increases in CO2 emissions on the Earth’s global temperatures.

However, not only did they find that higher levels of CO2 made no difference, but they also proved that it simply isn’t possible for increases in carbon dioxide to cause temperatures to rise.

Kubicki and his team recently published three papers which all conclude that Earth’s atmosphere is already “saturated” with carbon dioxide.

This saturation means that, even at greatly increased levels of CO2, the “greenhouse gas” will not cause temperatures to rise.

Kubicki et al. summarize their evidence by noting that as a result of saturation, “emitted CO2 does not directly cause an increase in global temperature.”

Current levels of CO2 in the atmosphere are around 418 parts per million (ppm) but the scientists state that past 400 ppm, “the CO2 concentration can no longer cause any increase in temperature.”

The saturation of CO2 in the atmosphere is the hypothesis that dares not speak its name in mainstream media, politics, and across much of climate science.

I wonder how Dr. Kubicki is going to kill herself.

Jeez. I read Cordy's post this morning and thought the EXACT same thing.

Lucky for Jan (a dude) is that these peer-reviewed papers are becoming more common. In fact, it's not a death sentence anymore to go against the climate change narrative. FINALLY!!!

Some climate change reality...

CO2 is .04% of the atmosphere. There's no freaking way that it's "forcing" our climate. It's been proven to not "force" our climate (exponentially affect temperature). Actual simplified climate is a factor of the sun, the tilt of the planet, and water vapor. Everything else is a money grab.

Should we use the Boy Scout code and leave it better than we found it? OF COURSE!!! Should we sacrifice our economy, jobs, food and our future? Nope. You all can figure out why everything else is happening, and whether it's reactionary or by design....above my pay grade.

it'll just get memory holed.

people say dumb things all the time, like this GOV who is pissed at border patrol for confiscating drugs at the border -- since she's in bed with the cartel...




LUJAN GRISHAM: I'm going to put extra borders going and beyond, for the love of God, put him at the border in Sunland Park where I don't have a single border patrol agent, not one, and people pour over, and so I'm cranky with the secretary. He knew that was coming, he did not say a word to me. Politico wants to write an article. Every single major press group is asking repeatedly, basically accusing me of being feckless, and uh, Huffington Post, I mean, they're all going to write about it.

They're saying that they are worried about fentanyl so they're taking all of our cannibis, and they tried to, and they're detaining people. We've never done that. We just use discretion, and look the other way. But the press also knows that the bad Border Patrol is taking a hard stance, and the only way is either we have to adjust it or I have to send you a letter saying, "You're persecuting the states, you are not using your discretion, you are not working with me on immigration," and I don't want to send that letter, but I'm boxed in hard.

...Here's what also the secretary said to me, just so you know: "Oh, who cares? They make a lot of money." Well, first of all, (inaudible) so I was really offended by that. Shame on him, and then secondly, we're the only state that lets baby producers in. If they lose a load, their business goes belly up. Yeah, I thought that was really inappropriate. Whatever you all want to do about that, it was really inappropriate.

Yeah, if you can, I've held off the press so I'll send it to you. You know I got a nasty "The governor is feckless, and she's going to let Biden walk all over her." I can't have that.
